„I started my legal career the traditional way, with a modern twist: I studied law in Romania, earned my master’s in law in Switzerland, and went on to do legal research in Portugal. After that, I spent two years in Romania’s conventional legal system, working in litigation and commercial advisory.
That’s how I became a member of the Bucharest Bar in 2014.
Still, I found myself spending more time navigating bureaucracy than solving problems for people. I looked around at the traditional legal world and thought:
”I want to practise law in a way that truly helps people: modern, clear, and focused on them.”
So I moved to Lisbon, where in 2017 I found myself among communities of digital entrepreneurs and freelancers. They were building successful businesses but kept running into basic legal questions that traditional lawyers couldn’t answer. That’s where I discovered I could make a real difference and put my knowledge to good use.
In 2020, I returned to Romania and founded Legally Remote, a boutique digital law firm built for the way modern businesses work.
Every service is designed around what SMEs and digital companies need: commercial contracts, GDPR, new technologies and data protection, e-commerce compliance, intellectual property protection, and cross-border legal strategy. All of it comes with clarity and a human approach.”
